The specs above are pretty much the same as their 100GB brethren.
Seagate maintains the warranty trophy for their 5-year coverage.
Both have 8MB buffers, but the Seagate has the edge in spindle speed -
5400RPM.
UPDATE, Jan 2006: Fujitsu and Seagate now
both offer 5400 RPM, 120GB 2.5" HDDs, however Seagate still has the edge
in the warranty department. |
